The building is amazing. The room is spacious, having two floors makes everything seem bigger. The top floor with the infinity pool, sauna and working space are incredible. The Sathon area is a bit boring, it is the financial district so everything cool is far away. To go to the BTS Sukhumvit line you will have to transfer in Siam. Traffic to go in and out of the area was horrible. The building management are very friendly and helpful. Wi-Fi was incredibly fast (400/400 Fiber).
But the listing is (sadly) kind of mismanaged. A few bad things:
- The room was extremely dirty. We found a lot of cockroaches roaming around. A horrible smell came from under the washing machine. We moved it and found a dead gecko. From the smell it seems it had been there for long, and that's what attracted the cockroaches. We had to spent about 2h cleaning everything. After that, no more cockroaches. The host should have noticed and cleaned beforehand, very disgusting. They did offer a free cleaning to compensate for this which was nice from them.
- No toilet paper was provided. Their answer was "You have to buy it yourself". Nothing to say.
- There are literally no cooking utensils. There was only one frying pan which is scratched and unusable, it should be thrown away.
- The lock stopped working because the batteries ran out. I had to go buy new batteries and contact management to fix it. Even after showing the bill to the host, they had doubts that it cost that much or that I even replaced the batteries.
- The place is not owned by Cheathy - it is owned by a group of Chinese people. Communication was a bit difficult, but in the end they were always very responsive and helpful.
Overall, these are great facilities, but the host should put a bit more care into the listing itself. Clean thoroughly, decorate, buy kitchen stuff (very important), take care of the place. When you pay 1000+ euro for a place you expect some standards and care which were not there.
